Danese et al. showed that patients who achieved disease clearance 8 weeks after ustekinumab induction were more likely to be in long-term clinical, symptomatic and quality of life remission with ustekinumab maintenance treatment than patients who did not. Authors evaluated disease clearance in the Phase 3 UNIFI program and its association with long-term outcomes.
